I worked very hard on another site to get Michael a star on the WOF. (to no avail so far). Seems the quest for one for inxs has become equally uncertain. But did you all know that not too far from the WOF is the Rock Walk, dedicated to deseverving rock Artists? Perhaps working toward that may be more plausible. Just a thought! check out www.rockwalk.com. What do you all think?

Yeah! I didn't know about the Rock Walk until a couple years ago when I went to a show at the House of Blues, and noticed all the hand prints on the sidewalk. I kind of forgot about it since I didn't see inxs. LOL

Good idea on the Rock Walk. I had never heard about it until now!
As far as the WOF star is concerned, it is most definitely not a dead issue. As a matter of fact, we've just gotten quite a few signatures on the petition these past couple of days and we're more than halfway there.
If anyone has a way to contact INXS management to make them aware of the petition, then by all means please contact them on our behalf or pass the info along and I'll do it since I started the petition.

I've lived in the LA area most of my life & I can honestly say I've never heard of the RockWalk either. Sounds pretty cool...I will have to go & check that out. OK...I just did some research on the web about the RockWalk. It appears they will induct individuals as well as groups ( I see Slash is being inducted this month..) Anyway, here is what their website says about inductees: Unlike Hollywood's Walk of Fame, which allows the public to submit nominations for future inductees, all Hollywood's RockWalk® inductees are chosen solely by past honorees. The individual or group receiving the most first place votes is designated as Hollywood RockWalk's® next inductee. In this way, inductees are chosen by real "music authorities," those who would best be able to gauge his or her contribution to Rock 'n Roll history.so...it looks like we would have to get the past inductees to nominate and vote for Michael or INXS. So, anybody have a contact with any of the current inductees? Here is the list of inductees for the last 15 years: www.rockwalk.com/inductees/Oh I also see that Elivs was inducted in 1990, so i am assuming a posthumous induction is definitely a possibilty. **edited to add: OK...Im not sure about this RockWalk. I just went thru the ENTIRE inductee list and neither The Beatles nor The Rolling Stones are inductees!! HELLO.....I cant think of 2 other bands that probably influenced more people in rock n roll over the last 40 years than those two bands!!! On a positive note, Terry Bozzio is being inducted this month.

We already have a petition going to get the guys a star. I've been trying to get contact info for someone on the INXS management team to make them aware of it. If anyone here knows how to get in touch with someone directly, please let me know. Grazie!

Uk1xs, thanks for your help on this! There are some others fans, mainly from INXS.com, who have been helping me spread the word. I would love to make a formal request to an INXS management representative with the petition attached, so hopefully, I can get a contact name and address soon.
In one of the threads in the Ask Nick Egan section, Mr. Egan already mentioned his interest in helping us out. We are all very grateful for that.

I just thought I'd mention that fans on another site have raised $3740.63 so far for a star for Michael . I noticed some familiar names from here who donated to it .
